Planet FPL - The Fantasy Football Podcast

In the first of four Clash of the Correspondents Podcasts during the international break James welcomes Adam Hopcroft and Dara Curran to discuss the GW30 meeting between Aston Villa and Fulham and what we can expect from both clubs during the run-in.

Are Villa simply average without talisman Jack Grealish or is it worse than that? Should FPL managers hold on to the likes of Emi Martinez and Ollie Watkins despite poor form and difficult fixtures to come for Villa?

And can Fulham survive the drop? Are there defensive and attacking gems from The Cottage for FPL managers to consider as the race to overtake Newcastle begins?
